| son.
 CHICAGO. July 24.-W. J. McGarrigle, the
 convicted boodler, has escaped. Last evening
 Sheriff Watson drove up to the County jail
 in his buggy, got out and disappeared in the
 building, reappearing with McGarrigle. The l two entered the vehicle and drove north. Their destination was McGarrigle's house on Race street, Lake View. Upon arriving there
 Sheriff Matson and his charge entered the
 house. McGarrigle greeted his wife and l children very afectionately and all entered the front room. In a few moments McGarri- 1 gle went upstairs to see the baby, Sheriff Watson remaining down stairs. Although McGarrigle was out of sight he was not out of hearing of the sheriff, who heard him talking in the room upstairs. Presently he descended and said he would like to take a bath. Back of the front room in which Sheriff Matson had remained was parlor
 bedroom and off this the bathroom. Me- Garrigle wentss into the bathroom acoompa- nied by his wife, closed the door and Sheriff
 Watson heard Mrs. McGarrigle tell the do-
 mestic to bring clean clothing for MT. Me-
 Garrigle. Sheriff Watson could hear the
 water running in the bathtub. He waited
 a liberal time for the bath and then asked
 McGarrigles little girl, who had re-
 mained in the room with him,
 to tell her father he must hasten. The child went to deliver the message, entered the back room and did not reappear. When after 8 considerable time the little girl had not re- turned the sheriff for the first time grew suspicious that something was wrong and ste tn "a cd ha parlor from the bedroom knocked and called "McGarrigleI' No response was returned and upon entering the bedroom Mrs. Me- | Garrigle said her husband must be still in the bath. The sheriff at once made for the bathroom and upon entering saw that Me Garrigle had not changed his underwear and l had not been in the bath. Then came nasty search through the rooms, but Mo | Garrigle had disappeared entirely. The sheriff ran out of the house, searched the yard and the outhouses and finally roamed through the neighboring yards, but he was unable to find trace of his prisoner. When ! finally the sheriff hastened to the nearest sta ! ton the police of the entire city were soon aroused. Detectives by scores began to SCOUT the city and every policeman was ordered to remain on duty indefinitely in the hope that some of them might be fortunate enough to run across the ex-warden. !
 Sweating Blood on a Very Hot Day.
 ATLANTA, July 24.-The workmen on seve- ! ral houses being built in Marietta felt the l heat to degree that almost rendered it inn ! possible for them to continue work. MT. I Murray, a carpenter working for MT. Miller l on MT. Frank Northcutt's house, became | sick, the precipitation almost ceased to flow, I but, strange to say, blood oozed from the top of his head profusely. He washed it off, and soon his hair became clotted with blood again. The sweating of blood seemed to give him relief. He quit work and went home. Several gentlemen witnessed this strange occurrence and vouch for it's truth. Memorial Gift to Williams College.
 It will be remembered by those interested | that at the time of the destruction of the \ gymnasium at Williams college during com mencement week in 1883 $5, 900 was contrib | uted to President Carter on the spot by 8 I gentleman to make good the loss. The build l ing was wrecked by cyclone the afternoon I before the commencement dinner was to have Il been eaten in it. The name was kept back, l and various men, among them Governor l Butler, who was attending the commence ment exercises, got the credit of the gift Iu I President Carter's annual report for 1886 it | was revealed that the giver was the lamented ! Josiah Lasell of Whitinsville, of the class of | "A, who died the previous spring. That l $5, 900 was the foundation of the present ! beautiful building. Various sums were added I by contributions, but the expense to the I treasury of the college over and above all | amounts contributed and rightly appropriated to the construction and equipments of the ! building was about $30,O That amount | the widow and son of MT. Lasell-the son was graduated from Williams in 1986-have assumed, and the building will be known hereafter as the "Lasell gymnasium" and in it's walls will be placed suitable inscription in honor of Mr. Lasell The friends of the I college will rejoice in this new evidence of the affection of it's alumni, and some will note the fitting way in which the son honors the spirit and memory of the father. The | building thus becomes beautiful and peeu liarly appropriate monument to 8 noble man. -Springield Republican.
